You didn't say which Triumph ...

Should work fine (with suitable changes for + ground if so equipped) on a
TR3-4 (with the self-parking, single speed wiper motor).  They of course
don't have a second contact on the stock wiper switch, but some minor tweaks
in the delay circuit should allow for "zero" delay with the knob set to
minimum.

I believe the wiper circuit for the TR4A-TR6 with two-speed wipers is the
same as your "Series 3-5 or Tiger" circuit, but I don't know about the later
cars (don't have the wiring diagram for my Stag handy).

BTW, the reference numbers don't match between the drawing and the text ...
